A light coat of clear first to seal the mask?

Edit: .....only because I keep forgetting to do that 😔

I hear ya man.  I had forgotten.

G’day Bob, I’m a bit late getting on board with this build, but I reckon this looks awesome. I’m also blown away by the concept of 3D printing a whole car kit. I’ve got a few 3D printed wheels and other aftermarket stuff in my parts box, but the ability to print a whole car kit is a new one for me, l guess I haven’t been paying attention to new trends. For the tech savvy ( l’m not one! ) there’s a whole new world of opportunities to build different stuff. I’m looking forward to seeing this one finished and in the “under glass” section. 👍🏻

Thanks Stuart.  Yup, 3D printing is playing a Big part in our hobby today and I'm really enjoying it.

This morning I got the glass installed and the bmf around the windshield and the headlights.

This is coming along beautifully. Care to share any tips on how your body printed so smooth?

Much obliged J.G.  Not really sure, I just print what I buy and hope for the best on the print out.  I will say this, a lot has to do with the orintation of the part in your Slicer software.
